Abstract:
An in-plane switching mode liquid crystal display device includes a plurality of gate lines and data lines defining a plurality of pixel areas including at least first and second regions, a driving device for supplying a signal to adjacent pixel areas, a plurality of pixel electrodes within the first and second regions within the pixel area, the pixel electrodes being supplied a first data voltage from the driving device of the corresponding pixel to the first region and being supplied a second voltage from the driving device of an adjacent pixel within the second region, and a plurality of common electrodes within the first and second regions of the pixel areas for forming a horizontal electric field together with the pixel electrodes.
